Kim Kardashian admits she and her sisters are “trannies” (about makeup)

Posted: 30 Sep 2011 10:42 AM PDT

I've spent way too much looking at photos of Kim Kardashian's crazy face. Often I just stare at photos of her, trying to pinpoint exactly what is happening, plastic-surgery-wise. There's a nose job, some eye work, lip injections, Electrolysis to remove facial hair and change her hairline, and, of course, regular Botox injections, but those are the only things that I can really identify using older photos of Kim as a reference. But it's only in the last year or so that I've begun to understand why Kim looks to alien-like most of the time - she wears a crapload of makeup. In particular, eye-makeup, and she must wear the biggest, most drag-queeny fake eyelashes out there, because they look scary. Now Kim (and her sisters) are admitting something that we've known for a long time: they're "trannies" - about makeup, at least.

Kim Kardashian is outing herself and her sisters — as trannies! The reality TV star says she and her siblings, Kourtney and Khloe, have always piled on cosmetics ever since their late father Robert Kardashian hired a professional make-up artist to give them beauty tips.

She told website xoJane.com: “He said, ‘My daughters are going to start to wear makeup and I want you guys to look at least presentable,’ which I thought was really cool. And we’ve turned out to be the biggest trannies because of it.”

However, Kim admits not everyone has been impressed with how the sisters apply their make-up.

She said: “We had publicists and people who would tell us, ‘Girls, tone it down. Stop wearing all the makeup.’ But then we would read on our blogs - like in the comments and everything - and everyone was like, ‘What lipstick is this, what mascara do you use?’ We were like, ‘We love make-up, so why try and be what we’re not?’"

Khloe insists they don’t mind the criticism as she knows they don’t need to wear a lot of makeup.

She said: “We joke and say we are like trannies because we love hair and make-up. I don’t think we necessarily need makeup, but we love it. But Kim definitely, if you take off what’s on her face, her face is the exact same. She doesn’t need it. It’s just like a mind thing to her.”

What do you think about the use of "tranny" as a pejorative about makeup usage? Because there are honest-to-God transvestites who want NO PART of the Kardashian insanity, and they don't like these bitches giving them a bad name. I personally think it would be appropriate to use "drag queen" when describing the Kardashian ladies' general style, makeup usage and hair. But I often use "drag queen" to describe women who go overboard, so maybe there's not such a big difference.

As for Kim and whether she "needs" makeup - she's seen sometimes with little to no makeup on Keeping Up the Kardashians, and she does look different without it - better, in my opinion. Kim in particular needs to stop overdoing it, because she often looks clownish. Khloe tends to go for a more natural look, so I have no complaints there. And Kourtney… I've never really paid attention to anything other than her consistently wrong lipstick shades (she always wears orange-red, and it looks like crap on her).

Princess Charlene goes solo with new bangs: depressed, terrible & sad?

Posted: 30 Sep 2011 09:58 AM PDT

These are newish photos of Princess Charlene actually doing a royal duty all by herself! I sort of can't believe that Prince Albert let her go somewhere by herself, although I'm sure there are "princess wranglers" just out of photo range, waiting to swoop down on a rogue, wayward princess who could make a break for it at any moment. Alas, I fear that Charlene has abandoned her plans for escape. Look at her eyes - those are the eyes of a woman who has dejectedly resigned herself to her fate. That's a woman with no fight left.

Anyway, the event: according to WENN, Charlene attended "the traditional mass of the Feast of Saint Michael held in La Turbie, a small village in the hills of Monaco. After the ceremony the princess went to a reception hosted by the Mayor and attended by local children." I hate her outfit. It looks like Armani, and it looks really oversized too. I get that it's supposed to be a loose suit, but damn… has she been losing weight? In the last post, I said that she was looking pregnant to me, but I'm taking that back. Oh, and this is only the second public outing Charlene has had in weeks - meanwhile, Albert continues to do public appearances without her, using other ladies as his "dates".

Also - look at her new hair. That's the bangs trauma of depression, I fear. Her face didn't need those little bangs, and her hair could totally usually a blow-out. Poor Charlene.

Justin Theroux secretly loves bologna, hard drugs and Angelina Jolie

Posted: 30 Sep 2011 09:53 AM PDT

The tabloids aren't feasting on the Uncool Bermuda Triangle (Quadrangle?) this week, or maybe it just feels subdued because last week was such an all-out tabloid craze. So, I made a conscious decision to NOT write about the In Touch Weekly story which claimed that Brad Pitt offered Jennifer Aniston $1 million (to the charity of her choice) to pose for a photo with him and Angelina. I didn't write about it because it didn't happen.

But I do have some questions about whether this Star Mag story happened. Star actually spoke to a named source, Keith Middlebrook, who claims that he had some "deep" with Justin Theroux about ladies and drugs. My "sketchiness meter" just pinged, so I looked through our archives and I found out where I had heard the name "Keith Middlebrook" before - he was one of Linnocent's "boyfriends" earlier this year, right after she got out of rehab (circa late March/early April of this year). He paid her bills, including a hotel room and her liquor tab, and he basically made it sound like he was her john. To be fair to Mr. Middlebrook, he actually has an IMDB page, and it looks like he is a working character actor (he was in Moneyball!). Anyway, who knows if this conversation actually took place, but it's interesting:

Jennifer Aniston might think she's found the man of her dreams in brooding actor-screenwriter Justin Theroux, but it turns out that his perfect woman is the very vixen Brad Pitt left her for - Angelina Jolie! Actor Keith Middlebrook befriended Justin on the set of Iron Man 2, the action flick written by Justin. Now Keith is exclusively revealing to Star their shocking conversation: "We talked about writing, women and drugs!"

Keith says: "My number one was Jennifer Aniston, and he raised his eyebrow, intrigued."

But Justin's pick for A-list fantasy woman is sure to be a shock for Jen: "He said Angelina Jolie. I laughed, saying the only fat she has is in her lips, and he quipped, 'That's the only place she needs it!'"

According to Middlebrook, Justin also opened up about then-girlfriend Heidi Bivens. Despite having dated Heidi for 12 years at that point, Justin refused to marry her. "Justin said, 'Why ruin it?'"

Given Justin's booming career and chiseled body, Middlebrook was stunned to learn of the shocking details of his new pal's drug past. While word that Justin once battled drug abuse surfaced last month, "He told me about using powerful painkillers like Dilaudid, as well as mushrooms, ecstasy, cocaine, heroin, LSD and crack."

Now, a friend is also revealing details of Justin's alleged alcoholism.

"He was definitely a big drinker," reveals the source. "Then no one heard from him for a year - then when I saw him, he told me he'd been in AA and getting used to being sober."

Hopefully, Justin has since changed his preference in women - and is still on the straight and narrow.

"He was the last person you'd suspect to be doing those hard drugs. I thought he was lying about his drug use," said Middlebrook. "He was just too clean, too together - a really solid guy."

Obviously, the Angelina Jolie thing is the soundbyte, but I find the drug and alcohol thing much more interesting. At this point, my take on Aniston is that she's a boozehound, and she likely dabbles in other stuff too, from pot to coke (just my opinion). She's pretty good at "maintaining" (except for the odd liquor-soaked public appearance), and she's no Linnocent. Aniston isn't out in clubs, making an ass out of herself. She's sitting at home with a margarita and a blunt. But if Justin is Mr. Clean Living and Sobriety - and he became clean and sober only recently - I have to wonder if the difference in their extracurriculars isn't going to be the biggest deal breaker for their relationship.

Meanwhile, Page Six reports this morning that someone (cough) isn't buying Aniston and Justin's relationship. Allegedly? Apparently. Someone thinks Justin is literally made of baloney.

Jennifer Aniston's neighbors are snickering about a prankster who left a blanket of bologna meat on top of her boyfriend Justin Theroux's BMW motorcycle early yesterday morning as it was parked outside of the actress' West 12th Street apartment.

A neighbor walking a dog early in the morning spotted up to 25 slices of "what clearly was bologna" stuck to the seat, the wheels, handlebars, muffler and engine at about 8 a.m. yesterday morning. But shortly after, the bike was cleaned off.

While the identity of the prankster remains a mystery, "I got the impression it was some weird message, like, 'You're full of bologna,' " the neighbor told us. "The bike was in otherwise in fine condition."

Aniston and Theroux, who met on the set of their movie "Wanderlust," moved into a Hollywood pad in August. But they have recently been spending time at the West Village apartment she bought in May, combining two apartments on different floors to create a 2,700-square-foot duplex.

Neighbors say Theroux's bike has been parked outside Aniston's apartment almost every day this week, and the pair have been repeatedly seen strolling around the city. The happy couple have attracted a lot of attention from photographers, causing a commotion which has unsettled some locals.

Aniston's rep said, "There are paparazzi outside their apartment 24/7. Don't you think they would have photographed the person doing it, if indeed this actually happened, which I do not know for sure."

[From Page Six]

Are the paparazzi there even in the middle of the night? Weird. Whatever, it sounds like a harmless (although funny) prank. *side-eye at Heidi Bivens*

Here are some new photos of Justin and Jennifer last night:

Star Mag: Linnocent tells friends, “I’m not a call girl”

Posted: 30 Sep 2011 09:41 AM PDT

Throughout the week, we've been keeping tabs on Linnocent's "boyfriend" situation. As soon as she got to Milan to work as a "model" for Philipp Plein, she and Philipp began looking extra friendly, and they were photographed hand-in-hand and all cuddled up. Some of you think he's gay. I disagree. I think he's straight, and he's a Euro-cheeseball who wants to make a name for himself as an international player by "romancing" Linnocent. It's his money, so whatever. Allegedly, Lohan's getting $500,000 to model and "date" him. And then on Wednesday night, Linnocent showed up in Paris, looking like an escort and once again, walking hand-in-hand with a sketchy Euro dude, this time a "businessman" and club owner.

If all of this seems like the whirlwind, jet-set activities of an international call girl on the run, ding ding ding, you win the door prize. Linnocent was likely "escaping" a situation in New York City, where it seemed like her long-time john/boyfriend/lover Vikram Chatawal was attempting to put their arrangement on the backburner. Page Six reported last week that Vikram's (admittedly estranged) wife came into town, and was upset to see a crackie escort living in her home (Vikram had installed Linnocent in his apartment). Anyway, Star Magazine has some interesting details about Vikram and Linnocent's relationship, including Linnocent's alleged claims to friends that she is NOT in fact an escort.

Lindsay Lohan is living the life of a lucky girl in love - with millionaire hotelier Vikram Chatawal spoiling her rotten with swanky dinners, putting her up in his posh apartment and whisking her off on pricey getaways.

"She treats him like her suger daddy, and everyone knows it!" reveals an insider. But the actress claims to friends, "I'm not a call girl!"

As pals question all the over-the-top pampering, Lindsay says they're not lovers. "Lindsay is telling everyone who will listen that she and Vikram are only close friends," an insider tells Star. "Nobody is listening to her!"

But for a friendship, Lindsay sure is reaping a lot of benefits. The actress has been plagued by financial woes and legal troubles recently - and now she has Vikram to foot the bill. He has even gone so far as to send [Lindsay] off with his credit cards for a New York City shopping spree.

While the actress' rep also denies any romance between the two, insiders continue to insist otherwise…

"Lindsay's been hooking up with Vikram for months, and they have a mutually beneficial relationship," the insider adds. And for the troubled star, the timing couldn't be better.

"As her career and star power disintegrate and her bank account diminishes, Lindsay needs a man like Vikram in her life to be happy!” the insider quips. “She should just admit it.”

[From Star Magazine, print edition]

In case you need to see the photos of Linnocent bending over, doing some lines and then making out with Vikram in his apartment, go here to The Superficial. I think they speak for themselves, but I always enjoy a good crack delusion story. I mean, of course Linnocent and Vikram are "just friends". I always invite my "friends" into my home, ply them with coke and liquor, have sex with them and then give them my credit card to go on a shopping spree. Doesn't everyone treat their "friends" like that?

Duchess Kate on her lack of royal responsibilities: “William’s in charge”

Posted: 30 Sep 2011 08:50 AM PDT

Here are even more photos from Prince William and Duchess Kate's royal hospital visit yesterday. I know many of you thought this dress was boring, but the more I see it, the more I like it. I sometimes hate Kate's style - I dislike when she wears old-lady lace, enormous buttons and Peter Pan collars, but I love the understated simplicity of this dress. Anyway, remember how I was once again calling Kate "hilariously lazy" just a few days ago? Some of you yelled at me and some of you agreed with me, all of which is fine, but I might have to eat s–t on this one. Just a little bit. Apparently, while Kate and Will were doing the rounds at the hospital, Kate was asked if she would make the Royal Marsden one of her charities. Which… is funny, because at this point, everybody is like, "Damn, can this chick do anything but shop and play with her hair? Shouldn't a nearly-30-year-old woman have more going on?" But Kate's response to the question was very, very interesting:

Yesterday the Duchess of Cambridge admitted that Prince William calls the shots in their marriage.

The Royal couple were opening the £18million Oak Centre for Children at London’s Royal Marsden Hospital when Kate was asked if she was planning to make the famous cancer hospital one of her charities.

Kate replied: “We’ll have to see - William’s in charge.”

During their visit, William and Kate spoke to several patients in the Teenage and Young Adult Chemotherapy Suite, and Kate promised to post a comment on the blog of nine-year-old Fabian Bate who is being treated for acute lymphoblastic leukaemia.

They are carrying on the work done by William’s mother, Princess Diana, who made her first solo visit to the hospital since 1982.

William has been President of the Royal Marsden since 2007 and he made it to the opening despite having just completed a 24-hour shift as a Search and Rescue pilot.

He admitted, “It was a bit of an early morning.”

[From AOL UK]

Hmm… so William's "in charge". In charge of everything? In charge of which charities she signs on to? In charge of her princess training? In charge of their image? I don't know. But, looking at the whole "When is Kate ever going to become a working royal?" issue through the "Will is in charge" thing is interesting.

My take before was that Kate was out of her depth, and she was simply not used to working or having people expect things from her, and the palace was eager for Kate to begin her royal duties - perhaps even get her associated as a sponsor or patroness of a dozen charities before the year was out. And that's starting small, believe me - truly working royals are often patrons of HUNDREDS of charities and organizations. Now I'm kind of wondering if William isn't holding his wife back. Maybe he wants her to be a layabout, he wants her to (still) be at his beck and call, and he wants to "protect" her from royal duties. The problem I still have is that Kate is nearly 30 years old, and she's basically a geisha, and she’s been a geisha most of her adult life. But that's what Will wants, I guess.

Here's some video of yesterday's visit. I think Kate's dress is prettier in motion (the cut is great), but in motion, Kate also looks even thinner. Like, when you see her size compared to the kids with cancer, it's like, "Which one is supposed to be sick?"

Star: Halle Berry custody witness claims Gabriel Aubry was verbally abusive

Posted: 30 Sep 2011 08:27 AM PDT

That title really doesn’t capture the alleged accusations against Gabriel Aubry in new custody papers unearthed by Star Magazine. The way Star phrases it, the accusations sound really sordid. The thing is, we’ve heard the exact same things about Halle, and we’ve also heard this about Gabriel before along with a lot of conflicting reports about how they were each terrible people so it’s hard to know what to believe. I would bet that their relationship is rocky and that they screamed and yelled before they called it quits, but it probably was in no way as one sided as this makes it sound at all. I also don’t buy Gabriel as this broody, emotionally distant person who forgets to bring presents for his daughter’s birthday and didn’t care about Halle’s pregnancy. Just the fact that he’s fought so hard for custody shows otherwise. Custody can get complicated and messy, and it’s obvious that both sides are slinging accusations. Here’s what Star claims, which I believe Halle could have definitely accused Gabriel of in the court papers. I doubt it went down like this at all.

Halle Berry’s ex Gabriel Aubry threw a chair against the wall and called [Halle] the N word during a violent confrontation last February, a Los Angeles court has been told.

Star has learned that new witnesses have made these and other explosive accusations against the Canadian-born male model in court documents as the couple’s custody battle over 3-year-old daughter Nahla continues. And these witnesses are shedding new light on the couple’s final blowout - a confrontation that sparked one of Hollywood’s most toxic conflicts.

Two months before their April 2010 split, Halle, 45, returned to Los Angeles after a trip to San Francisco, and sources say it was anything but a happy homecoming. “Gabriel was there, and Halle told him to leave or she would call the police,” a colleague of Halle’s, who has seen the court documents reveals.

“He screamed that she was a ‘ghetto n****r’ and threw a chair against the wall,” the source says. “Halle was shaken and sobbing.”

Sadly, such before was not uncommon for Gabriel during the couple’s nearly five-year relationship, the new witnesses claim. Gabriel allegedly insulted and attacked valets, waitresses, nannies, Halle - and even their daughter.

“Gabriel hated that Nahla was mixed race,” a colleague of Halle’s claims. “He never wanted her hair to be braided, and he always said that Nahla was white. Friends tried to get him to understand that being mixed was part of her and Halle’s heritage, but he wouldn’t hear it…”

“Approximately six months after they started seeing each other, their sex life dwindled,” the insider reveals. “They rarely had sex, but Gabriel loved to watch porn…”

“He didn’t show any enthusiasm about the pregnancy,” the insider explains. “He didn’t help pick out baby names, help Halle relax, anything. His whole life was about playing golf. And when Nahla was born, he wasn’t any help either.

At Nahla’s second birthday party [in March 2010] “Gabriel didn’t even bring a gift for Nahla, and he was rude and stand-offish to the guests…

“He brought Nahla to her room and made her take a nap so everyone would leave!”

[From Star Magazine, print edition, October 10, 2011]

This is in Star, which doesn’t mean it’s false although it definitely could be. I’m thinking that what happened was that one of Star’s court sources dug up some stuff from this case that’s from earlier this year, when all these claims were flying around in the press. I’m really hoping that these two have reached some sort of truce for Nayla’s sake, but I think that the last we heard they were still duking it out in court, with Halle winning some sort of judgment to bring Nahla with her on set. So the accusations could be new for all we know, even if this happened back in February.

Here’s Halle out in Majorca on 9/12/11 with her boyfriend, Oliver Martinez, and Nahla. She recently broke her foot while filming there. Oliver was spotted out with a cane too. I wonder what’s going on there. Gabriel and Nahla are shown out on 8/10/11 and 8/17/11.

Anna Faris reveals her “number”: she only slept with 5 guys before her husband

Posted: 30 Sep 2011 08:06 AM PDT

I just can't get over how completely odd and jacked Anna Faris's face is looking these days. We discussed this last week, but I'm still disturbed. What is going on here? I think it's a combination of Botox, lip injections, too-blonde hair, some weird eyebrow situation and bangs trauma. It's terrible.

Anyway, Anna's new film, What's Your Number?, comes out this weekend. It doesn't look very good - and the reviews aren't great either (22% on Rotten Tomatoes). The movie is basically about a chick who has boned 20 guys and she decides to go back and re-examine all of her old lovers to see if any of them are her "soul mate". To promote the film, Anna revealed her own "number": FIVE. Six really, if you include her current husband Chris Pratt.

Anna Faris candidly revealed that she bedded a total of five guys before marrying her husband, "Moneyball" star Chris Pratt, in 2009.

"I'm at five," the star said at a screening of "What's Your Number?" "Don't you think five is kind of low? I'm 34!" During a pre-screening interview Tuesday night with Marie Claire editor Joanna Coles, Faris added, "I'm not a very good lover. I'm so nervous about my sexuality."

In the film, Faris plays an unlucky-in-love woman who frets she'll never find Mr. Right after learning the average woman sleeps with 10.5 men before finding "the one," and she's bordering on 20.

"I think 20 is kind of low," she told Coles. "Shouldn't it be like 70?" Faris — who was recently hailed by Tad Friend in the New Yorker as the future of female comedy — also said that she doesn't read reviews.

"I try not to read [them]," she said at the Joseph Urban Theatre. "The bad ones really cling. And I'm lucky that I've been part of a lot of poorly received movies, so I'm immune. 'Scary Movie 4' was a brilliant movie. I'm shocked it didn't get nominated."

[From Fox News]

I do think five is pretty low, but I'm not sure if I believe her, especially after her description of her "wild years" - the time right after she divorced her first husband. As for ladies and our "numbers" - I'm not going to reveal mine, but if you'd like to reveal yours, go ahead. I won't judge or slut-shame. *quietly waiting to judge and slut-shame*

Will Pippa Middleton ever be able to “compete” with her sister’s style?

Posted: 30 Sep 2011 07:23 AM PDT

At this point, I know that Pippa Middleton isn't really going to "happen" for us here in America, but she's still big news in the UK, and I'm still interested in her as a person/celebrity. I get that most of you actively dislike her, and think her "fame" is tenuous and undeserved. But we are a nation that has made the Kardashians famous and unbelievably wealthy, and some days I would just prefer to write about Pippa rather than the Kat-face Klan.

So these are photos of Pippa throughout this week. The photos of Pippa in the white dress are from Thursday, the beige tiered dress are from Wednesday, and the other outfit is from Monday or Tuesday. I believe that all of the photos are from Pippa "walking to work" - and I still think she's working her "ex" George Percy, who she wants for a husband (just my opinion). Over the weekend, Pippa was at a friend's wedding with her sister and with Alex Loudon, who is still hanging around, apparently oblivious to the fact that Pippa is trying to upgrade.

Don't you like that on the same day that Pippa's sister Kate wore cream to an official royal engagement, Pippa showed up on the streets of London in a shade of white as well? I often wonder about the behind-the-scenes sister stuff between the two of them. Yes, Kate "won" and Pippa will never be able to "compete" at Kate's level… but I still feel like Pippa is still competitive with Kate about a lot of things. Too bad that Pippa makes clothes look really budget, and Kate makes clothes look expensive (unless it's Issa, in which case Kate often looks cheap too). Plus, Pippa's style is just so… rough. It's not "old" but there's something dated about it. She really just don't know what flatters her athletic, boyish figure, I think.

In any case, I'm giving Pippa credit for being the Middleton with a job. Huzzah to Pippa!

Lacey Schwimmer is proud of her curves, says she’s a size four

Posted: 30 Sep 2011 07:03 AM PDT

I’ve seen Lacey Schwimmer, Chaz Bono’s partner this season, on Dancing with The Stars and I think she’s hot on the dancefloor. (When she dresses herself, not so much.) When she dances she really moves it and she’s graceful and kickass at the same time. Lacey has come under fire for being “larger,” relatively, to the other tiny dancers on that show. She looks like she eats and maintains a great muscular physique. In a new interview with In Touch, Lacey says she’s proud of her curves and that she’s defending herself against the people mocking her online. Then the article states she’s a size four. They don’t directly quote Lacey on the size, they just say “Now a healthy size four.”

“As a dancer, you are supposed to look a certain way,” she explains during an exclusive photo shoot with In Touch. And while the 23-year-old certainly developed thicker skin over the years, she is not immune to bullying. Recently ridiculed for how she looked in a pair of high-waisted jeans, Lacey quickly became the subject of cruel taunts online.

“There are so many blogs and websites hating on me,” she says. “When people start talking - even if I don’t agree with what they’re saying - it definitely affects you.”

It’s easy to see why, especially considering that Lacey suffered a debilitating eating disorder when she was 13 that withered her already tiny body to a size o. Weighing just 98 pounds and living on six slices of turkey a day - combined with hours of dancing - Lacey shares, “My hair was falling out and my skin was gray. It was a really bad time.” Though she recovered at age 15, during a 2009 interview with In Touch, the dancer revealed that she will “always battle” with her weight.

Now a healthy size 4, Lacey… refuses to cover her body in shame over the “mom jeans” scandal. In fact, she promises to reveal her taut stomach more than ever this season… “I have boobs, I have a huge butt and I have a lot of muscle,” says says. “I like having curves - I’m proud of them!”

[From In Touch, print edition, October 10, 2011]

Kaiser has written many times about our skepticism at the new trend of vanity sizing. Her position is that if you’re not comfortable mentioning a size, or if you’re going to shave a few sizes off, don’t mention one at all. I could see Lacey being a six in some styles because she’s so fit, but four is pushing it to me. Maybe Lacey didn’t directly say this and it’s something In Touch added, who knows. Given the size quotes we’ve heard from Kirstie Alley, it’s possible the Dancing With the Stars gowns are all a couple of sizes smaller on the tag than they are in reality.

That said, that’s awful that Lacey had a terrible eating disorder. I think I remember reading about that when she first talked about it. I hope that she’s really as confident as she sounds here, because she should be. The issue that a lot of us had with those mom jeans wasn’t her weight at all, it was her atrocious fashion. That’s easily remedied, although in Lacey’s case I’m not so sure because she’s just so consistent with it.

Adele’s new music video for “Someone Like You”: epic, amazing and lovely?

Posted: 30 Sep 2011 06:51 AM PDT

This is really not what I needed this morning. Yes, I love Adele. I think she's gorgeous and amazing talented and I want her as my girlfriend. But I didn't need to sit here, first thing in the morning, in a puddle of tears after watching Adele's new music video for "Someone Like You". Now… this is the song. Everybody loved her first single and music video from 21, "Rolling in the Deep". That's the song that got the ball rolling on this album, which has become an international success story and game-changer for the music industry. But in appearance after appearance on almost every music awards show, Adele has been performing "Someone Like You". It's the broken-heart/lost-love song that will stand the test of time, and g-ddamn if it doesn't make me cry EVERY SINGLE TIME I hear it. Sigh… here's the new music video:

My God, she's pretty. That face! She's beautiful. The video was shot in nearly one long, continuous take in Paris, and I'm so thankful that Adele isn't one of those pop artists obsessed with jump-cuts and costume changes and all of the pop-star accoutrements that come with someone trying to pretend they don't really need a good voice. That being said, I LOVE the coat Adele is wearing. Very flattering.

Here's a different video of the same song - it's Adele recording the song live in her home. GAH. I love her so much.

Oh, and this is the performance of "Someone Like You" at this year's Brit Awards. This was the game-changing performance.

Okay, I'm just going to sit here in a puddle of tears. *sob*
